Tecfidera is the best so far for me. Minimal side effects compared to others I have taken.

I've been on tecfidera for about 6 yrs and love it. I was having 4 to 5 exacerbations a year and now about only one a year. You have to be consistent and not miss doses cuz if I do I usually flush it's not anything I can't handle just irritating and uncomfortable. I've been lucky and not had any other symptoms

I have been taking Tecfidera for four years now. My MS is stable and its a lot better than Extavia. The mind fog I had was too much and the depressed state was even worse. I felt better with Tecfidera within two weeks.
